A dining car might be unlikely since it was a common practice into the post-WW1 era for dining cars to be switched in and out of the consist for meal periods only.  Through dining cars would have been the exception.

Of course the wreck was in April 1900 however.

Check out the April 2000 issue of Trains, which had Casey's story as the cover story.

Forget about exact for now, beyond:

Engine No. 382, a 4-6-0

Mail car No. 51

Baggage car No. 217

"Coaches and Sleepers" (from a passenger's statement)

I thought a dining car too but this link says just 6 cars:
